The Prancing Horse Rides Away the Winner

Honestly, everyone should have seen this coming. Just look at it: This car was simply too stunning to be anything but the winner, and now AutoWeek, at least, has confirmed it by naming the Ferrari 458 Italia the Best in Show at Frankfurt. And while cream-of-the-crop contenders such as the Maserati GranCabrio, Mercedes-Benz SLS, Aston Martin Rapide, Bentley Mulsanne, Rolls-Royce Ghost, Lamborghini Reventon Roadster and Audi R8 Spider were all in the running, each, in the end, had to bow down to the swooping, sexy and somewhat menacing V8-powered monster with the 562 horses.
